The Vaccines Manufacturing and Innovation Centre (VMIC) should be partially open in summer 2021, with the facility fully operational in 2022. The VMIC is working towards having fill-finish capability at the end of 2021. The objective remains to accelerate the readiness of the VMIC by a year and it is on track to achieve this, but it is also important to remember this is a complex project being delivered in unprecedented times.
